Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Chapter 871

Around ten o'clock in the evening.

Lu Changgong, who had gone out to investigate, brought his men back.

"Battalion Commander." Lu Changgong saluted Li Jin.

"What's the situation?!" Li Jin asked, wanting to know the results of Lu Changgong's investigation.

"There is no trace of enemy presence within a radius of twenty miles." Lu Changgong reported the results of the investigation.

"Are you sure?!" Li Jin's mouth corners turned up and he smiled.

"Yes." Lu Changgong nodded seriously. The result of his investigation was that there were no Japanese troops stationed there.

"The Japanese probably thought that no one would run to their rear, so they didn't leave too many troops behind." Li Jin figured out the key point at once.

Yes, normally speaking, few troops would dare to go to the rear of the Japanese.

"That should be the case. Lao Liu and the others will be here tomorrow. Then we can take over this place directly." Lu Changgong also said with a smile.

In two days, Liu Changshun, Kong Sheng and others were able to get here.

Li Jin did not speak, but was in deep thought.

Now that the Japanese's logistics troops have disappeared, the Japanese on the front line will inevitably rush forward, and the Japanese here will also be able to guess that something is wrong.

Maybe the Japanese here will send people out for patrol. If they want to ambush us, it may not be that easy.

"Battalion Commander, what are you thinking about?!" Seeing this, Lu Changgong couldn't help but ask.

"I'm thinking that the Japanese will most likely send people to patrol this transport route tomorrow." Li Jin said what he was thinking. In order to ensure the safety of this transport route, the Japanese will definitely do this.

"If that's the case, then the Japanese are giving us a chance!" Lu Changgong was also somewhat happy when he heard this.

Once the Japanese send people out, the defense of the logistics department will be relatively weak. At that time, they can directly launch an attack here without even waiting for Liu Changshun and Kong Sheng to come.

"There is still a high probability that the Japanese will send people to patrol, and they may even set a trap for us." Li Jin thought for a while and continued.

"What trap?!" Lu Changgong was puzzled.

"For example, the Japanese might send a troop carrying supplies as bait, and then have people follow behind this troop.

Once our men attack this transport unit, the Japanese behind them can take the opportunity to attack our men." Li Jin said.

He thought about it and felt that this possibility was very high.

"Then what should we do? We only have so few people now. If we really take action, I'm afraid there will be some casualties." Lu Changgong said.

They were not sure how many people the Japanese would send out. If there were more than four or five hundred people, there would inevitably be casualties if they wanted to kill the Japanese when they were on guard.

It would be easy to kill so many devils, unless they were caught off guard.

"Don't worry, our target is the enemy's logistics department. If they want to send people, then let them send people. We can let Kong Sheng and his men ambush the enemy on the way.

The operation was divided into two parts. The first part was to let go of the Japanese's logistics troops, and the second part of the soldiers was to keep an eye on the Japanese behind them.
When the troops in front are attacked, the troops behind will not think that there is another troop ambushing them." Li Jin thought carefully and came up with a plan.

Although it is indeed a bit troublesome for the Japanese to use the logistics troops as bait, it is not a big problem.

"This is fine." Lu Changgong's eyes lit up.

Moreover, Liu Changshun and his men have quite a few people. Even if all the Japanese soldiers are dispatched, they will be dead if they are ambushed by carelessness.

Besides, they are now keeping an eye on the Japanese, and they will know at any time how many people the Japanese have sent out.

Li Jin didn't say much. He took out a pen and paper, wrote down the plan, and asked the telegraph operator to send it to Liu Changshun.

.........

On the other side, Liu Changshun and his friends were resting in a forest.

"Company commander, the battalion commander sent a telegram." After receiving the telegram, the telegraph operator hurried to Liu Changshun to report.

After taking the telegram, Liu Changshun started reading it.

"Go and call Captain Kong and the others over." Liu Changshun called a soldier and gave him an order.

Soon, Kong Sheng and Deputy Captain Zhao rushed over.

"What did Captain Mu say?!" Kong Sheng said. As soon as he heard it, he knew that it must be because of Mu Jin's matter that Liu Changshun called him over so urgently.

"Well, our battalion commander said that we don't need to go over there, and asked us to prepare to ambush the Japanese halfway." Liu Changshun handed the telegram to Kong Sheng while speaking.

"This little Japanese is quite insidious. He actually wants to set a trap for us?!" Kong Sheng said after reading it.

He saw through Li Jin's plan at a glance. It was the Japanese trying to use bait to lure them.

However, his plan was discovered by Li Jin, who even turned the tables on him.

"Captain Mu is really amazing. He let us let the first group of Japanese soldiers pass through first, and then let the second group ambush the first group of Japanese soldiers.
In this way, the troops behind the devils will think that we have been fooled, and they will be fooled and fall into the ambush of the first troops. It's great." Kong Sheng couldn't help but admire it.

But this type of combat can only be done when soldiers like Mu Jin are present.

If he really let his soldiers do this, they would undoubtedly be seeking death.

Although the combat effectiveness of the 335th Regiment was already very strong, he didn't think they could compete with Mu Jin's troops.

There is no comparison between the two. Mu Jin's troops killed the Japanese like killing chickens, while the 335th Regiment couldn't even kill the Japanese whose number was half less than theirs. The gap can be imagined.

"Of course, our battalion commander's combat ability is not comparable to that of ordinary people!" Upon hearing this, Liu Changshun was pleased to accept the praise on behalf of the battalion commander.

"Lao Kong, go to bed quickly. We have to set off before dawn." Liu Changshun said. They needed to have a good rest.

"Okay." Kong Sheng took Deputy Captain Zhao away.

"Mu Jin's abilities are ridiculous. It would be great if he were really one of ours." Deputy Captain Zhao couldn't help but sigh.

"Yeah, not only is he young, he's also very smart and he can almost fool the Japanese at will." Kong Sheng also said.

"I dare not even think about it. If one day, we were fighting Mu Jin, what would the scene be like?!" Deputy Captain Zhao continued.

"Fight with Mu Jin?! If I knew my opponent was him, there would be no point in fighting. I would just surrender. Only a person with a mental disorder would fight with Mu Jin." Kong Sheng directly said that there was no need to fight.

If you want to survive, the only way is to surrender, any other way will lead to death.

"That's true. He can beat the Japanese like this, let alone us. If you want to fight him, you must be crazy.
God knows what kind of conspiracy Mu Jin will come up with to deal with us. "Deputy Head Zhao also agreed.

The two quickly returned to the camp to rest.

The next day, before dawn, Liu Changshun and his friends got up early, had breakfast, and set off in a hurry.

.........

At this time, many Japanese soldiers in the Japanese logistics department began to carry boxes onto the car. Oshima Ichiro was standing by and watching in person.

At around eight o'clock in the morning, this transport force consisting of two squadrons set out from here.

Ten minutes later, another Japanese troop of about 600 people set out and followed the transport troop. The two sides always kept a distance of six or seven miles.

.........

Li Jin and Lu Changgong, who were scouting from a distance, naturally also saw this scene.

"Battalion Commander, you are right. The Japanese are really setting a trap for us. It seems that even the boxes transported by that logistics unit are still empty." Lu Changgong said.

He saw that the wheels of the vehicles transporting supplies did not change much. If they were all supplies, the wheels would not be so bulging. They should be flattened.

"Well, the Japanese are worried about encountering an ambush. In order to avoid any accidents with the supplies, they put empty boxes there." Li Jin nodded.

The Japs were somewhat cautious, but not enough.

"Send a telegram to Liu Changshun and others immediately, telling them that the plan remains unchanged and that everything should be done according to the plan, and also tell them the number of the two groups of Japanese devils." Li Jin ordered.

Now the Japanese have sent more than 900 soldiers away, and there are only more than 200 Japanese left here. When Liu Changshun and his men arrived, the logistics department would have been taken down by them.

"Yes!" Lu Changgong immediately asked the telegraph operator to send a telegram to Liu Changshun.

After sending the telegram, Lu Changgong returned to Li Jin.

"At twelve noon, we will launch an attack on the Japanese!" Li Jin issued the battle time.

He had to wait until these devils were further away before taking action.

"I understand." Lu Changgong responded.

At around 10:30 in the morning, Liu Changshun and his team had already selected the ambush site.

Kong Sheng brought 1,200 soldiers, plus a company of special operations battalion soldiers, and ambushed at the second location.

Liu Changshun took the rest of the men and ambushed at the first location. Of course, he did not have them ambush directly at the first location, but hid on both sides to prevent the Japanese transport troops from sending people to explore the way ahead and expose themselves.

As soon as the Japanese transport troops passed by, they immediately entered the ambush point.

Now everything is ready, just waiting for the devils to arrive.

To this end, Liu Changshun also sent several people to a location five or six miles away to scout the enemy situation.

Time passed by minute by minute, and it was around eleven o'clock.

The walkie-talkie in Liu Changshun's hand rang.

"Company commander, the Japanese transport troops have arrived. There are two squadrons of people, the same number as the battalion commander said. There is no change." The voice of the reconnaissance soldier came through the intercom.

"Okay, I got it. Just stay where you are and wait quietly. Tell me if there is any situation." Liu Changshun nodded.

"Understood." The intercom fell silent again.

Liu Changshun was also waiting quietly.

Seven or eight minutes later, Liu Changshun saw a Japanese transport troop appearing in the distance.

He observed the situation through a telescope.

When they discovered these devils, they had no intention of sending anyone to explore the way.

That location was so suitable for an ambush, but the Japanese didn't even send anyone to investigate the situation.

"This little Japanese didn't even explore the way. He was already prepared for an ambush." ​​Zhao Ming on the side said.

Although the Japanese did not send anyone to explore the way, every soldier was very cautious and had been prepared.

"Well, the Japs are indeed cruel enough. In order to destroy us, they actually let so many Japs serve as bait." Liu Changshun had a serious face. If he were asked to make such a decision, he would definitely not be so cruel.

"There's nothing we can do. These devils are just a bunch of beasts. They don't even let their own people go." Zhao Ming disagreed.

Given the nature of the Japanese, using their own people as bait is a very common thing.

.........

At this time, a Japanese captain was sitting in a military vehicle of the logistics unit.

"Captain, do you think the enemy will really ambush us on the road? Otherwise, how about we send a vanguard to scout the way ahead?" suggested the Japanese lieutenant sitting next to him.

The mountain ahead looked like there might be an enemy ambush, so he thought he should send someone up to check it out.

"There is no need for that. Our mission is to act as bait. If we send out the vanguard to investigate ahead of time, the enemy will see how cautious we are and will probably choose to retreat directly.

Don't forget, the brigade commander has told us that the plan must not go wrong, otherwise, you and I will commit suicide by hara-kiri!" The Japanese captain refused to send anyone to investigate.

Since it is used as bait, it should act like a bait. How can it be a qualified bait if you send people out to investigate?

"Hey!" The Japanese lieutenant was also somewhat helpless. To be honest, he was really worried. What if they couldn't hold on until the troops behind them arrived and were wiped out? !

But on second thought, even if they couldn't hold on, the troops behind them would be able to hold on to this group of enemies and then destroy them.

This way, they can easily transport supplies to the front line.

Soon, they crossed the mountain area with fear in their hearts.

"Captain, it seems that the enemy did not ambush us here. Perhaps the enemy has retreated long ago." The Japanese lieutenant breathed a sigh of relief and spoke.

The logistics unit that had trouble earlier was transporting a large amount of supplies. After snatching the supplies, the enemy should have been thinking about how to place these supplies and should not have continued to ambush.

"Don't be too careless, maybe the enemy is just ahead!" the Japanese captain reminded. They haven't seen any trace of the enemy yet.

…………

In the command center of the Japanese logistics department, Oshima Ichiro was sitting in front of the sand table. He frowned and was considering whether to tell the division commander directly about the accident in the logistics unit.

He wanted to ask the division commander to remind other troops, but he was worried that the division commander would think he was making a big deal out of nothing.

"Forget it, just say it." Oshima Ichiro thought about it and made a decision. He stood up and walked to the table, picked up the phone on the table and called the division commander.

"Division Commander, I am Oshima Ichiro, and I have something important to report to you."

"What's the matter? Tell me!" The voice of the Japanese division commander Inaya Shiro came from the phone.

"This is what happened..." Oshima Ichiro began to talk about how the logistics troops might have been attacked, resulting in the inability to transport supplies to the front line in the first place.

"What?! Are you saying that a National Army unit ran to our rear area and annihilated one of our logistics troops?!" Inaya Shiro was shocked. This was something he had not expected.

Who could have thought that the National Army's troops were so bold as to send a troop to infiltrate their rear!
